DNA methylation influences human centromere positioning and function - Nature Genetics
Genome-wide and targeted perturbation of DNA methylation at centromeres affects CENP-A positioning and centromere structure, resulting in aneuploidy and reduced cell viability.

🚨The paper from my postdoc in @graeffjohannes.bsky.social’s lab at @epfl-brainmind.bsky.social is out! We show that memories can be switched on and off by simply changing the « packaging » of DNA in neurons through epigenetic editing. www.nature.com/articles/s41...
Cell-type- and locus-specific epigenetic editing of memory expression - Nature Genetics
CRISPR-based epigenetic editing is used in a cell-type-specific, locus-restricted and temporally controllable manner in the adult mouse brain to modulate memory expression.

Monitoring markers of tau protein in the blood can predict functional outcomes in patients recovering from ischemic stroke better than MRI, according to a comprehensive study of more than 1200 patients in #ScienceTranslationalMedicine. https://scim.ag/49TTWTQ
Brain-derived tau for monitoring brain injury in acute ischemic stroke
Brain-derived tau in plasma reflects the extent of brain injury in acute ischemic stroke, predicts functional outcomes, and detects treatment effects.
